Some simple questions
« on: April 17, 2020, 02:33:56 PM »
I've played a lot ov VB6 but here i can't find how to do simple things as moving cargo or passengers between planets, i thought maybe i needed to make a colony and i use the "create colony" but in movement orders i can't unload people or installations, is this a bug or now the process is different?

Do your ships have cargo shuttle modules on them? This is a new thing in C# Aurora for both cargo and colony ships.

That was the problem thank you, i thought that they were optional in order to speed up the loading

Cargo Shuttle Modules are necessary for any freighter or colonyship to load or unload cargo unless the colony in question has a spaceport (which creates 1Mil. spaceport worker jobs each in C# Aurora). I can not say if spaceports function when there is no workforce. Maybe someone else can check?

I have a freighter with two "cargo shuttle bays" that is having this same problem.   I can load on Earth, but can't unload installations anywhere else.   What am I missing?  Is a cargo shuttle bay different than a cargo shuttle module?

No, that should be enough. Have you created any colonies to unload to?

I click the "create colony" on Mars in the system view - but nothing happens.   I've also tried it from the fleet organization window when giving orders to the freighters.   Nothing.

That was bug in old version, it is gone in 1.8.0 or 1.7.3. If you want to play on 1.7. update to the 1.7.3.
